Morris, IL
I think your right but i'd have to get out a tape measure to make sure. Both are 36" sheets so that means either 12" spacing (Morton and other) or 9" spacing (FBI and others) and i believe morton is 1" rib. I've always been told the higher the rib the stronger it is. We put some menards steel on an old chicken house and i wasn't impressed. I never checked but i would guess i could shoot right through menards steel with BBgun where the morton steel would only be dented.
